However, everything was just her wishful thinking.
When she first went to California, every day and night, she hoped that one day he would suddenly appear and say to her, “Serene, let’s make up.”
However, not only did he not visit her, he did not even send her a message. She gradually accepted the truth – he no longer wanted her anymore after marrying her sister, Selena.

Caleb looked at his reaction from the rearview mirror, but he couldn’t figure out why they suddenly turned back.
Gabriel stared silently at the woman outside the car window. The emotions in his dark eyes were unclear so no one knew what he was thinking.
After about five to six minutes, he opened the car door and strode towards her. He stopped in front of her and looked on silently.
A pair of shiny, high-end custom-made leather shoes came into her view. Serenity raised her head and looked at the man with swollen and red eyes. Surprised, she asked with a dry and hoarse voice, “You… Why did you come back?”
He raised his hand and caressed her cheek, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes with his thumb. The dry and warm touch of his fingertips was like a feather brushing the bottom of her heart, making her heart tremble.
His deep pupils reflected her beautiful face that was covered in tears. He calmly said, “It’s late, let’s go home.”
She was still looking at him as a lock of her hair was blown messily by the night wind, blocking her vision. Her pale lips were so dry that barely said, “I don’t want to go home.”
Back then, both the Rivers family and the Grant family knew she and John Grant were dating, but they still agreed to his marriage with Selena. Other than Helena Turner, no one else stopped them.
Although Helena objected, it was useless. The marriage was still finalized and she was the last to know.
If Benjamin Rivers cared for her, if he did not agree to that marriage, or if he had asked John Grant to marry Serenity instead, she would not be in so much pain now.
In the end, Serenity’s existence was dispensable to all but Helena in the Rivers family.

The engine of the car had been switched off as Gabriel brought Serenity into the living room. A servant came up to him. “Young Master, welcome back.”
Mrs. Winstead’s eyes widened when she saw the woman who came back with him. This was the first time Young Master had brought a woman back.
Serenity followed behind Gabriel, wearing his suit jacket. She politely nodded at Mrs. Winstead, “Hello.”
Mrs. Winstead had mixed feelings about the lady as she nodded stiffly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Gabriel tugged at the tie around his neck and turned to Serenity. “You only drank champagne tonight. Do you want something to eat?”
“No need.” She shook her head.
Gabriel looked at her silently and brought her up to the second floor. He opened the door to a guest room and said, “You can stay here tonight.”
Serenity looked into the room. It was very clean and even the bedding was new. “Thank you.”
Gabriel looked at her calmly as he said, “I’m just next door. If you need anything, call me anytime..”
